Calculate the momentum of of a 1,5000 kg car traveling at 6 m/s
ANEK [815]

Answer: 90000 kgm/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Momentum of car = ?

Mass of car = 1,5000 kg

Velocity of car = 6 m/s

Recall that momentum is the product of mass of the moving object by its velocity

i.e Momentum = mass x velocity

Momentum = 15000kg x 6m/s

= 90000kgm/s

Thus, the momentum of the car is 90000 kgm/s

Salt is now added to the water in the bucket, increasing the density of the liquid. what happens to the tension in the string ?
AlexFokin [52]

The question involves a ping-pong ball that is held submerged in a bucket by a string attached to the bottom of the bucket.

The answer is the tension of the string will increase. This is because making the water salty increases its density, and consequently, increases its buoyancy. This is why sea water is more buoyant than fresh water. Therefore the ping pong is pushed more upwards by the water when salt is added than initially. This gives the string more tension.

A person jumps off a diving board 5.0 m above the water's surface into a deep pool. The person's downward motion stops 2.2 m bel
shutvik [7]

Answer:

9.9 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 5+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.9\ m/s

If the body has started from rest then the initial velocity is 0. In order to find the velocity just before hitting the water then the distance at which the downward motion stops is irrelevant.

Hence, the speed of the diver just before striking the water is 9.9 m/s

How does surface area affect the amount of air resistance an object experiences?
Ymorist [56]
The greater the cross-sectional area of an object, the greater the amount of air resistance it encounters since it collides with more air molecules. ... It will have to accelerate for a longer period of time before there is enough upward air resistance to balance the downward force of gravity.
